Thanksgiving Day 2009

I want to take this time to say thank you to all those who have been following this story and to all those who have given their time, money, and prayers to support the Chatham family.
It has been a blessing and honor to reach out and help. Our time knowing Richard was short but he taught us much by his strength and courage. I look forward to seeing him again in heaven.
Life's journey will never be easy but it is to be a learning and growing experience.
May his faith and hope in God be a witness to us all as we face what tomorrow brings.
Praise be to God in all things. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

I wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that Richard passed away today. His fight has ended but the battle continues on for Andrea and Kayla, they now have to continue on in this world without a husband and father. Please pray for the family.
There will be a memorial held in Richard's honor this Saturday the 28th at 3:00pm, it will be located at Advent Hope, 428 N.E. 3rd ave in Crystal River.
Please come and help encourage Andrea, Kayla and their family through this time.

2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

Hi everyone,
Things look good for the Chatham's to be moving into a "new" place this week.
As of today we have reached the amount needed to get them into a clean safe home,
though they still have outstanding bills and expenses.
We have worked out the lease and payment for 6 months for them. This would not be possible if it were not for all the donations and generous people that contributed. Thanks to all those who are giving even when times are tough for all.
We have some items that we need to collect for the family.
Dressers
bed for Kayla
bookshelves
end tables
If you know of anyone who could donate these items we can pick them up and deliver it to them.
Thank you for your continued support.

Luke 13:15-16 tells us that we should also not be hypocrites. You cannot pick and choose when you will help your brother. When God places the needy before us, we are obligated to help them.
